Student Engagement - A Vision for the Future
Research has demonstrated that engaging students in the learning process increase their attention and focus, motivates them to practice higher-level critical thinking skills, and promotes meaningful learning experiences. When students are engaged they are learning with their peers, they are developing leadership skills, making friends, learning life skills, getting higher grades, learning inclusive practices, interpersonal skills and having fun. The Palliser School Division is on a continuous journey of striving towards teaching excellence to maximize student learning and potential. We strongly believe student and parent voices must be included as part of the process. Although we cannot predict the types of jobs that will exist in the future we know that our students will need a variety of skills. What are the BEST ways to provide students with authentic, unique and innovative learning experiences? As we look to the future, how do we ensure that our students will be successful? We will focus on the three themes:
- Learning Experience such as Dual Credit Courses, RAP, Green Certificate, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Arts)
- Learning Competencies such as Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Life Skills
- Easing Transitions to Post Secondary Life (work & education related)
